What is George’s response when asked for an explanation about (?) (can’t remember what, but I can picture him saying this on more than one occasion)

**"You’ll just sense that it’s there."**

And remember folks, this is jeopardy, so answers in the form of a question and no questions in the answers, or something like that.

Outstanding answers:

**"What about the driver?"**

**He decided to attach a piece of elastic to a rubber ball and a paddle, because before that, the ball would just bounce away.** I googled to get this answer so I disqualify myself. **neuroman** you were not right.  
**"You’ll just sense that it’s there."** What is Jerry describing spotting a toupe? Just a guess.

**"You don’t wanna know"**

I already answered **Mr. Bookman**. It is: Who is the library guy who was after Jerry for not returning _Tropic of Cancer_?  
This actress played Jerry’s girlfriend on an episode where she pretended to be his wife in order to get a dry-cleaning discount.  
Extra points: This food condiment figured into the plot.

Used that one already 🙂

Who is the library cop who pursued Jerry for his “stolen” copy of “Tropic of Cancer”?  
Also: **What about the driver?**

What is the phrase that Kramer asked his phone sex girl/Jane when she discussed getting it on in a cab?  
Okay, now mine:

Okay, let’s see:  
Mr. Bookman - it’s already been done, but here goes anyway:  
Who is the library cop pursuing Jerry for an overdue book?

**NYR407** - nope, not right, but it was a Jerry quote, so you’re on the right track.

\*\*He decided to attach a piece of elastic to a rubber ball and a paddle, because before that, the ball would just bounce away. \*\*  
What is the Jerry’s explanation for how the paddle-ball toy was invented?

I’ll put this one in again: \*\*“You’ll just sense that it’s there.” \*\*

**You don’t wanna know**  
What the hell did Jerry say in an ep I saw just the other day, but I can’t remember what it was about other than I think hhe said it to Elaine near the door of his apartment following an exchange with Kramer and/or George, and my god this is dribving me nuts.

Good enough?

**Dinky Dunuts**  
Where does DiMaggio Dunk.

I’m new here, so I’ll have to check the first coupla pages before jumping in with any answers.
